Which Brand Of Popcorn Pops Up The Most Corn? By A. Stone Problem Nobody likes to get to the end of their popcorn bowl only to have most of the popcorn not popped. It is very frustrating to purchase popcorn and end up with a bowl of un-popped kernels. Well, this experiment is to determine which brand of popcorn yields the least amount of un-popped kernels?
Which brand of popcorn leaves the least amount of kernels? Which brand of popcorn leaves the least amount of kernels? Have you ever wondered how popcorn kernels get left behind? Research by food scientist Bruce Hamaker from Perdue University suggests that it is lack of moisture. Moisture helps the corn kernel pop.
Though many people will think there is a lot of bad in soda, technically it’s just carbonated water, which is basically “gas that’s called carbon dioxide that has been dissolved under high pressure” (sciencebuddies.org). When one opens a can of soda pop the carbon dioxide in it is released out causing the bubbles in the drink, and the best part for this project is that one can choose their own way to do it, yes they may have to follow what the recipe calls for but they can choose their favorite flavors and their own color for it like if they wanted to they could make a bacon flavored pop but it might not taste the best but the point would be that it would be their own idea.
Corn now a days has a very crucial and important part in our every days lives. It is the second most abundant grain developed for human utilization and is very versatile. Corn has various significances in our food, bio fuel and its medical advantages from the ancient time. The benefits of corn in terms of health and nutritional value is that it contains many vitamins such as the various B-complexes which is
How is it possible that we are made of corn? Most of the beef, chickens, and even salmon eat corn. Today, it is rare to find anything not made of corn. We cook our food in corn oil, and we use corn-based
Reasoning of this design. The brand of popcorn testing has proven to be inconsistent. Each major brand of popcorn claims to have the highest amount of popped kernels. We chose this method of experiment because we can control the variables of the experiment. By controlling the temperature we can determine which method will yield the most amount of popcorn instead of relying on which brand claims to have the most yield of popcorn or studies on brands. This experiment can be used on all brands as long as the brand name stays the same.
Growing up in Nebraska I can tell you that I have ingested my fair amount of corn and corn-based products, I mean we are the Cornhuskers after all. But what is so special about corn? I ask this question because I want to know what is so special about corn and why is it in almost anything and everything we eat. America's agriculture is vast in the many types of plants that are planted and harvested every year, such as soybeans and wheat that are also used as an ingredient in many of our foods that we consume every day. When trying to answer this question I had to do some of my own investigative work, just as Pollan did when finding out all he could find out about corn. I researched the most grown grains in America, since corn is a grain, and to no surprise, it was corn but the second majorly grown crop that we Americans plant was soybeans. From there I
Do different brands of popcorn affect how many kernels pop? Introduction The grocery store shelves are filled with many varieties, sizes, and brands of the same item. There are numerous kinds of popcorn, large and small, produced by different manufacturers. Some people choose products based on need, some base their decisions on price and some base their decision on quality or brand loyalty. With all of these options it can be difficult to choose. You may want to save money but at what cost? In this experiment we will determine if generics are equivalent alternatives or if we really get what we pay for. (Bautista, 2006)
I counted, recorded and discarded any un-popped kernels and discarded any pieces that appeared to be broken off a popped kernel. A plastic spoon was used to carefully sort through the popcorn to minimize breakage.
mother prepare them. First, we made the masa, then we spread the masa on corn husk. After
UNIT ONE: Terms and Concepts I. The Shaping of North America 1. History was beginning first recorded 6,000 years ago. 500 years ago Spaniards discovered the Americas and soon started colonizing the new lands. 2. The theory of Pangaea suggests that the continents were once stuck together into one huge continent. Eventually they started
In 'Industrial Corn-Destroying Our Health & Environment ", Pollan points out that zea is a common crop that grows into corn. It is the most commonly planted ccereal crop, and serves, Pollan argues, to serve political interests rather than authentic human needs. Taxpayers pay farmers to grow corn, despite the already plentiful growth of the crop, and zea/ corn has become indispensable to the American food sector. This is so because corn is cheap and therefore it benefits the govenment to produce it. To that end, everything and everyone, from animals to humans, is fed on a steady diet of corn.
Description of a Tootsie Roll Pop Tootsie roll pops are an iconic candy for all ages. Like most people, I grew up enjoying tootsie roll pops. I would imagine, over the years that I have eaten thousands of them. As an adult, I feel a bit nostalgic when eating one, always remembering the slogan, how many licks does it take to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie roll pop?
My favorite flavor of a tootsie pop is caramel. Unlike the other tootsie pop flavors (which are mostly fruity) caramel tootsie pops have a unique taste. Another reason why this flavor is my favorite is because how good the candy tastes. Caramel is a sweet, sugary, syrupy flavor that leaves
Corn (Zea mays) is one of the most widely produced crops in the United States and it provides more than 40% of the world’s corn (Benson and Gibson). The history of maize dates back to around 5,000 - 6,000 years ago due to the Native Americans domesticating the maize ancestor.
